The Shepherd - A Modern Parable About Our Search For Happiness

Product Description

The human heart is on a quest for happiness. As individuals we are all so unique and different, but we are bound together by our common yearning for happiness.

In our search for happiness, we often do things that we think will make us happy, but in fact end up making us miserable. Under the influence of self-centered philosophies we often seek happiness through pleasure, possessions, power, or just simply the path of least resistance. Each of these may offer moments of happiness, but they end too soon, having lasted ever so briefly, and our quest for a lasting happiness continues. These moments of happiness are of course real, but only as real as a shadow is real. The shadow of a person is real and wonderful, but it is nothing compared to the actual person. Sadly, so many of us spend our whole lives chasing shadows of happiness.

The Shepherd is a story about a man who has found the happiness that our hungry hearts desire. His simple and peaceful spirit provides a vision of happiness that is deeply rooted in ancient wisdom, but may just be that "new vision of happiness" that can rescue us.

In today's world where appearance is valued more than substance there is a restlessness rampant among us. Deep within one question tugs consistently at our hearts: "What will truly bring me happiness?" As we wrestle with this question we come to one very potent realization: "There must be more to life..."

Everyone has a theory about happiness, but rarely do you look deep into the eyes of a person who has the peace to back up their theory.

In The Shepherd, Kelly sorts through the false conclusions, half-baked theories, and endless contradictions which seem to dominate our modern search for happiness, to arrive at the one true source of this happiness we desire.

The beautiful message contained in this book has the power to change our lives. This book can lead us along the rarely trodden path to arrive at the ever-needed truth. If you open yourself up to its message, The Shepherd will guide you to the happiness your heart desires.
